I'll try to keep this short and give everyone a reason to be grateful (lol I do get long winded on philosophy topics). I'm grateful for everything truthfully. It took me a long time to get to a place where I can say that and it hasn't always been easy. More than anything, I'm grateful for finding a community that didn't laugh at me and berate me for publicly working through all of my issues. I'm grateful for the people that supported me and didn't judge me when I first got here even if I can look back myself and see how lost I was at the time. I'm grateful that STEEM and other crypto has helped me to develop the skills and assets I need to be free and independent in a world that I ideologically clash with on many things. I'm grateful for the respect that others have shown me and the fact that I can respect them as well, even when we fundamentally disagree on serious issues. I'm grateful for the fact that I've gained so much humility through the experiences I've had here on steemit and I realize how much I have to be grateful for and that I no longer take that for granted. I'm grateful for all the friends I've made and I'm grateful to be alive and that I didn't give up on New Years when I was planning on it. I guess that's what it's really about, I'm just grateful for all of it and all of you. Thanks for being who you are to all of you. Namaste.
